    this sounds good and I must try it. I always ignored this vegetable when I saw it in the market.

    It's my pleasure, dear Ritika. Just noticed quite a few textual errors in the posting that might have occured due to hurried typing and ignored proof reading, for which, I now beg readers' pardon.

    Vallary is 'Coloured cucumber'[a colloquial name], which is grown in down south and costal areas of India. I have now forgotten it's Botanical name and English equivalency, though. In kannada we call it as Soute kaayi, or magghe kai. This initially green colured gourd-like vegetable belongs to the family of cucumbers, but looks yellow and orange when it gets ready to use, and can be preserved for months if stored in open, hunging fashion. This is not a salad friendly vegetable, hence not used in salads. It's usage is made while preparing some curry accompaniments such as saambaar, koddel, huli, kozhambu and some times added in dry fish-prawns curries, too. It is also used in the preparation of sweet Idlies, dosas, paayasa [kheer], haalu baayi [ a kind of desert, prepared using rice-wheat flour, cooked along with water, coconut milk, cardamom and sweetners in to a thick porridge like consistency, and then, poured into a wide plate to set and cool, before consuming], etc.
